Are you good at games?

Tweet

Back in the day, back when Tetris was "king" of games. All right, it was later than that, but before there were as many games out there... Anyway, I learned I was really good at Tetris. But did some dumb game, like Tetris, have any use in real life? Actually, it was the other way around. I was good at Tetris, because I was good at something in real life. I'm good at packing a lot of stuff in a, relatively, small space. My mother wanted something packed right, she called me. Heck, we managed to get everything she wanted to bring back from her condo in Colorado when she sold it, in her Accord, in 1 trip. Granted, there was only me in the car, because Mom had to stay an extra day, actually 2 days, to sign the paperwork. What made me think of this? Well, tonight I loaded my pills. I have a weekly pill organizer like this one: However, I only take pills in the morning and the evenings, and I forget the morning ones more than half the time. So, instead of just loading the evening/bedtime pills in the ordained spot, I load them in the noon, eve and bed slots. I take 3 large pills - magnesium, calcium citrate + D and a vitamin pill; my two scripts and benedryl after I eat my evening meal. To fit them all in the space allowed, I have to pack them in very carefully. In fact, I've taken to using tweezers to get some of them in place. I do put the morning pills in the morning slot and, should I actually take them all before the end of the evening pills, they are easily reloaded. But I was good at Tetris for the very reason I can get all these pills into this case. How about you? Is there some real life thing you are good at that makes you also good at some electronic game?
